Not Alone.

A Galveston female school teacher
was on intimate terms with the male
teacher in the same school. He was
in the habit of strolling into her room
during the recess and chatting with
the object of his affections. His name
was Smith.
One day the lady teacher endeavor-
ed to make the GLASS comprehend the
omnipresence of God. She explained
to them that God was everywhere.
"Now, my dear children, suppose
you all 60 out of the room, EXCEPT
myself, and | stay in here. Am !
alone ?" asked the female teacher.
"No," exclaimed one of the little
girls, "Mr. Smith will be with you."
